      There are two options on Gronze. I checked out both last year. (long story) The Donativo is very good and central / on the Camino. The private option is not cheap and at the top of the hill, off the Camino a bit and away from things. I would...

      I will be returning to the Camino next week in Mérida where I left off in December, hopefully all the way to Santiago, what was your choice of accommodation in Alcuésar, if you stayed there?

      El Ramon reacted to Vacajoe's post in the thread newbie seeking advice Camino Primitivo with Like Like.
      While it’s possible to complete the Primitivo as your first Camino, it really shouldn’t be your first long-distance hiking experience, especially solo. There are fewer options for shorter stages, fewer walkers who can help you out if something...

      El Ramon replied to the thread Vigo to Santiago de Compostela.
      Vigo can be tricky, the first time I came through there I found rooms were outrageously expensive , ended up taking ferry over to Cangas to spend the night...loved it... on my two other starts from Vigo ended up just getting a hotel to start my...
